The force F is directed from A toward D and D is allowed to move from B to C as measured by the variable s. Consider the projection of F onto line EF as a function of s. In particular, determine and plot the fraction n of the magnitude F which is projected as a function of s/d. Note that s/d varies from 0 to

- The three forces of magnitude P can be replaced by a single, equivalent force R acting at point A. Determine the distance x and the magnitude and direction of R.arrow_forwardFind the forces Q1,Q2, and Q3 so that the two forces systems are equivalent.arrow_forwardThe forces P1=110lb,P2=200lb, and P3=150lb are equivalent to a single force R. Determine (a) the magnitude of R; and (b) the coordinates of the point where the line of action of R crosses the yz-plane.arrow_forward
- The chain OA is 25 ft long and weighs 5 lb/ft. Find the maximum force in the chain and the distance H.arrow_forwardIf the intensity of the line loading is w=[(40xx2)/40]lb/in., where x is measured in inches, use integration to find the resultant.arrow_forwardThe force F=5i+12j+4k lb is applied to the handle of the door. Determine the orthogonal component of F that is perpendicular to the plane of the door.arrow_forward
